Jess seems to have it all. She has a gorgeous boyfriend, Muggs, landed the lead in the school play, and her best friend Ali will always stick by her. She even gets on well with her older sister! Then her mum is diagnosed with breast cancer and Jess's world is turned upside down. No one seems to understand what she's going through. Muggs is too busy with the play, her dad is never around to talk to and all of a sudden Ali is avoiding her. Jess soon starts to realize that maybe having it all isn't what really matters and maybe the people you thought you could depend on aren't the ones to trust. A fantastic and touching debut from Chris Higgins, undoubtedly a new talent who identifies exactly where teenagers are coming from. Writing to rival the likes of Jacqueline Wilson and Cathy Cassidy, Chris Higgins tackles genuine teen issues with confidence and her wise sensibility, and writes in an authentic first person narrative to create strong teen protagonists. - from Amzon
